Look at the wheels and think " spoiled dude who buys whatever he wants". Look at the saddle and think" poor guy I wonder if he would be too proud to accept a few bucks .... "

From March 6 to 22, you’ll be tasked with riding parts of the 7 actual stages from this year’s Volta Ciclista a Catalunya.

The top three finishers when the competition is over will be invited to Barcelona to take part in the final, on stage, where the real event will be!

Are you ready to experience the magic of professional cycling first-hand?

The ONLY reason I won't be one of the top 3 and racing in Spain is it would be in conflict with the Double Devil.
Well maybe that and wouldn't want you guys to be too jealous.

I could do it for you if you like, my ride on Saturday was very similar to stage one of the real race! And I'm in good form, I won't embarrass you!

You probably have a good shot. You 4 fast riders should work together to put someone on the podium.

I've signed up, as much as anything to do some roads I know! But I'm not sure I'll have the time to do all the stages as the same time as doing real world rides to get the kms in to develop the stamina!

I've signed up, hopefully they give us at the back some random stuff!

V4.17 released. Improvements for DD trainers (they claim).

Once Team Beige, always Team Beige You can never unfriend me

You should come over and try the dark side - we've started doing ChainGang rides now. Starting to feel like the good old days. 12 of us on Thursday with another 4-5 wanting to join in but timings not quite right last week @BILL S doesn't know the fun he's missing

Well this summer is make or break for me. I am now on month by month payment to bkool and if my motivation does not improve then I may be looking to have a Zwift subscription to see if it's really as good now as you guys say. It better be at least twice as good seeing as it costs twice as much.

 

[BILL S]

I noticed your ride didn't show in Bkool. I just asked to be your friend. It must have dropped off when you changed your name to Bored Man.

Thanks for posting that Randy. I'm now just ever so slightly less confused than I was before

Well done to everyone who competed in the Feb Chaingang league
The new one is now scheduled so we have a nice flat stage this Thursday before @keithaitch hilly stage next week. That's the one I'm really looking forward to as I've no idea what it'll be like. I don't think we've ever had a video chaingang race before.

Anyway, congratulations to @AAAC 76C , @keithaitch & @perswe for 1st, 2nd & 3rd in the Feb league. Very close racing at the front this time with Keith or perswe in the lead for most of the league before AAAC in the end pulling out all the stops to win by 16 seconds. Another one like this please guys

What are people’s thoughts on the Tacx Neo?

Both versions are popular with their users. Quiet and capable.

My Kickr gave up on me tonight on BRVR - it really doesn't like long, steep climbs. Tends to overheat. I'm looking at the Neo too. But do I go for the Neo 2 for £1200 or Neo 1 for £900 (I'll join British Cycling to get a 10% discount from Halfords). Be interesting to see what you think and go for.

I'm thinking I may move to monthly too when my annual subscription ends in August, but only because I'm really only here 6 months out of the year. I hope you are still here come next November. It wouldn't be the same without you. Understatement of the year.
